Global Video Intercom Device Market: Opportunity Analysis

Surging smart city projects

Governments of various nations such as India and China are spending huge amounts in developing smart city projects to promote rapid urbanisation and to deliver better living standards to the citizens. Therefore, the demand for security infrastructure and devices such as video intercom devices is anticipated to project optimistic growth in the coming years.

Growth potential in developing economies with limited penetration

There is a low penetration of video intercom in some developing economies. This is expected to offer potential market opportunities for key players in the video intercom device market. For instance, in MEA and Latin America, there is low adoption of video intercom devices as compared to other regions. In these regions, currently, only real estate developers and a few commercial places are installing video intercom devices in tier 1 and some tier 2 cities. Hence, there is significant growth opportunity for key market players to expand their presence in the above mentioned regions.

Technology transition from Analog based technology to IP based technology

Due to the rapid technological advancement, video intercom devices are moving from analog based technology to IP based technology to provide better assistance to customers. In May 2017, Aiphone Corporation – a video intercom manufacturer – introduced IP networked technology in its products replacing analog technology. The intention behind this introduction was to increase the usage of the products in different security sectors. Interoperability and a better audio-video quality were some of the improvements because of the same.

Integration of smart assistance with intercom

With an increase in advancement towards smart gadgets, many vendors associated with technology are integrating smart personal assistants with intercom devices to facilitate automated workflows in residential and commercial places. For instance, Amazon.com integrates its smart personal assistants Alexa and Echo with intercom devices to ease day-to-day activities.
